Stocks and Other Stuff We Love

Whether you are into Valentine's Day or not, we can all appreciate the need to express our love for someone or something. With the big day looming, many folks are busy buying sweet chocolates and sappy cards for the objects of their affection. Here at the Fool, we've got other preparations under way for Valentine's Day.

Our writers and analysts love lots of things. Last year, to celebrate this romantic holiday, we ran a series on Fools' First Loves -- stocks that our writers stared at longingly before purchasing, such as Disney (NYSE: DIS) , Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX) , and FormFactor (Nasdaq: FORM) . But this year, we decided to add a new twist. Instead of focusing on first loves, we decided to focus on all of our financial loves. Whether it's a heart-stopping company, a type of investing or account, or a person somehow related to the world of investing and finance, the possibilities are virtually endless. And we suspect that many of our readers will share our passion for some of these choices.

Disney and Starbucks are Stock Advisor recommendations. To find a Foolish investing service you'll love, take out any of our newsletters for 30 days -- for free!
